Sarah – let me explain some more. First soak the flax seeds for a few hours or overnight, then put everything in the food processor together with the carrots etc. The flax seeds will soak up the water, so it will have a pudding like consistency after a few hours… everything goes into the food processor – when soaked, you won’t have any water to drain from flax seeds. Hope this makes sense.

Hi Jennifer, if you dehydrate on maximum (150F) for 2 hours, I’d flip it then and then decrease the temperature to 105F until it is dry – maybe about 4 – 6 hours? If you don’t plan to dehydrate at a high temperature, I’d say if you start it in the morning at 105F, after around 6 hours, you could flip it and dehydrate till it is all dry – another 6 hours. NOTE – when you flip it, take it out of the texflex sheet and simply place on the screens to quicken dehydration. Hope this makes sense. I don’t tend to time dehydration – I just check periodically.

Hi Wendy, I’ll have to get back to you on this. You can make crackers with vegetables and grains… but I don’t have a recipe to share right now, but it is something I can work on for you. I would think sunflower seeds would also be an alternative, but it won’t gel up like flax. Let’s see what I can come up with. I’ll let you know. Thanks for visiting and commenting!

First of all, thank you Nancy Redd and HuffPost Live for having me for a much needed discussion. Watch the video here! My thoughts to: @ninaplanck – there are communities in Asia whose main diets have been largely strict vegetarian for many centuries (some Hindus, Jain and Buddhists) and their kids are fine! @chubbyveganmom – wish we […]

Problem My dear friend’s daughter suffered for over a year with big plantar warts on her feet. She couldn’t walk for months! Freezing DID NOT help. The warts only grew bigger. Oregano oil DID NOT help either. What helped? Soaking with Apple Cider Vinegar! Results These are the photos after soaking the foot, from Day 1 […]

My Vegan Homeschool buddy, Bonnie, finally succeeded in getting her Omnivore Hubby, Crosby, to go on a Raw Vegan Diet for a week. Together, they lost almost 10 pounds.

A few months ago after an allergy test cleared him for some animal proteins, my Vegan 7 year old son wanted to eat beef jerky, cheese and eggs, and drink goat’s milk. Although as a Vegan, I would naturally like my son to reap the benefits of a plant-based diet, I allowed him to decide for himself. […]
